hg locate [OPTION]... [PATTERN]...
locate files matching specific patterns
Print files under Mercurial control in the working directory whose names match the given patterns.
By default, this command searches all directories in the working directory. To search just the current directory and its subdirectories, use "--include .".
If no patterns are given to match, this command prints the names of all files under Mercurial control in the working directory.
If you want to feed the output of this command into the "xargs" command, use the -0 option to both this command and "xargs". This will avoid the problem of "xargs" treating single filenames that contain whitespace as multiple filenames.
Returns 0 if a match is found, 1 otherwise.
options:
| -r | --rev REV | search the repository as it is in REV |
| -0 | --print0 | end filenames with NUL, for use with xargs |
| -f | --fullpath | print complete paths from the filesystem root |
| -I | --include PATTERN [+] | include names matching the given patterns |
